Episode 6 | Struggle as the pathway to hope
Podcast Risking the Questions
Episode Description
Change, Joan Chittister says, is a condition of life in the 21st century and "real change is that place where the struggle starts. … There's nothing fixed here now. Our theology isn't fixed, the culture isn't fixed. The institutions are changing. Our relationships shift all the time, even the family. But if we are raised on absolutes, then what happens? Is God responsible for these negative absolutes in my life?"
